My heart turned into wood wood after seeing their SS13 show. It was an answer to what happens when a girl in sneakers grows up. She becomes a woman that still loves the pavement under her feet but isn't afraid to wear an organza flower top while she's doing it.

– Oh, It's too easy, we're already bored. But we leave every party the last, just like before. We're so young in old places, and we have nothing but our young faces.
And the world is sick, sick and closed since hundreds of years. (...) Oh, It's so easy in the night. It takes a while for our eyes to adjust to the light. We're so young in the city, our bodies are young and pretty and the world is old, old and freezing cold. (Molly Nilsson)

Stine Goya show was a blast, circus chic at its best with a soundtrack I just can't get out of my body. I am listening to Molly Nilsson, while my hubby listens to John Maus.

Thanks, Ms Fensišmensi for sending me the link to Mr Fujiwara photo of me. If I am not mistaken, it was taken after the Paul Smith AW12 show. Of course I went through his blog 8 and 2 yesterday, you should too. The colors are so alive you feel like you're watching some rare animals in a park, an impressive client list too.

At the Designers Remix SS13 show I couldn't get my eyes away from the lady in the front row, later I found out she is the legendary danish fashion journalist Didder Rønlund. I saw her the previous night at the Henrik Vibskov show, too. It was so packed and loud, but she was wearing this serene smile of a connoisseur, feeling right at home. She is 86. Oh, the stories and tips (and Chanels) she could share!

I have a By Malene Birger dress that is a few years old but still my favorite black summer dress. It is the definition of breezy elegance so I can wear it on any given day. Of course I use a tiny safety pin to keep the cleavage in place and give it a bit of an I-don't-care feel about it. In Copenhagen I was a little overwhelmed by the number of power women that dress up in MB, so classy, so conservative, but with a pink elephant chair in the room.

Slovenian designer Ivan Rocco knows how to scream summer! into a shirt. A splash of neon, crystal print and a bit of good-old transparency plus a generous cut. I believe my whole wardrobe was trembling when I brought home all the Rocco shirts from the capsule collection to prepare for the ELLE shoot. Everything else that was on the hangers was lacking the primal fun element or, as some might say, lust for nightlife. The shirt is not hiding its potential to make a long night out of the slightest opportunity, however I can't help imagining it in an office, teamed with a sharp pencil skirt, with - sorry, guys - no time for after work drinks.

Oh my, do this trousers mean business or what? They are the strongest thing out there, making everything else, even my Margiela coat, look kinda blunt. Get out of here spiky shoulders and come to mama razor sharp trousers! Of course there is still one thing I have to get my mind around to - how are you supposed to walk in them? I am shooting blanks here, but probably stilettos are a must. Combine pointy pumps with extra extra long trousers and it starts to sound painful. It will take a few months weeks to master the moves. Oh, who am I kidding. How would it look with sneakers instead?

DCMU is

Already as a child she had a habit of pounding on doors and shouting through teeth: "Naye, naye, naye!" Translated into her language that meant something like: "Out, out, out!" But the second she found herself outside she wanted to get back inside.
"Naye, naye, naye!" remains one of her favorite sayings.
